Today I'm focusing on a brand I haven't covered before with a White Stuff review. I've had to think hard about why I've so rarely included their clothes on here and I think it's because for a very long time I haven't felt as if I'm their customer. However, a little while ago I was contacted by the new team there which I was thrilled to see now includes some great people I know who've moved over from other brands [...]

Blogger charity sale now live

By |2022-04-01T17:59:15+01:00February 25th, 2022|Categories: Sale|

It's been a long time since I've done a blogger sale so this is a big one. Thanks to lockdown I haven't had the chance to wear a lot of the clothes that I've been sent to shoot over the last couple of years. I always tell brands that if that's the case, I'll share my good fortune with you and raise funds for charity at the same time. This time I'm splitting the donation between two charities. First of [...]

Well as you may have guessed from the picture above, I have something a little different for you today - Mr MC is making his modelling debut on Midlifechic... for one post only.

His only stipulation was [...]

Thank you for all of your lovely blog birthday wishes last week. I'm writing this in a bit of a time-warp on Tuesday night because we've decided to act on our empty-nesters' ability to be spontaneous and head off for a few days to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We're not going very far at all, certainly not to the exotic climes that we should have been enjoying right now but we've realised that with a new project looming this might [...]

I'm going to talk about how to make winter outfits look pulled together today but first I just want to say how nice it is when a post falls on Midlifechic's actual birthday - my blog is 8 years old today. This is post number 655 and what a journey it's been. As always I've been flicking through my early pictures and my first thought is how tired I look but then I think about how busy life was with [...]
